Query Failed Error: Views cannot be queried through prefix. Partial list of the matched views are

问题

I am trying to query a dataset with multiple tables and equivalent views. I am trying to query just the tables using _table_suffix, but it returns an error "Query Failed Error: Views cannot be queried through prefix. Partial list of the matched views-......" I cannot remove the views from the dataset. Is there a way to query the tables only and ignore the views?

SELECT COUNT(*), _table_suffix, DATE(created)
FROM `dataset.viewed_*`
WHERE _table_suffix like '%_page'

回答1:

Your options are:

• Recreate the views under different names, so that the viewed_ prefix doesn't match them.
• Use a longer prefix than viewed_ (if possible) when matching the table names, so that the view names aren't included.
• Migrate your tables to a single partitioned table so that you don't need to use a wildcard.

I would suggest the third option if at all possible; using a partitioned table is much better than trying to maintain multiple tables with a common schema.
